Romani people and activists are currently holding a ceremony at Auschwitz-Birkenau to commemorate the Romani genocide. 80 YEARS AGO TODAY the Nazis liquidated the 'Gypsy family camp', murdering 4.300 people in a single night.

As stated in the article, almost 90% of Romani people from Bohemia and Moravia (Czech Republic) were killed during the Holocaust. Between 1939 and 1945, Nazis and their allies murdered 500.000 - 800.000 Romani people all across Europe, representing 25-50% of the global Romani prewar population.

Some days in late August at home are like this, the air thin and eager like this, with something in it sad and nostalgic and familiar...

AeternaNova Northern Macedonian ethnographic project

"AeternaNova" (in Latin "aeterna"- ancient and "nova"-new) is an exhibition of photographs, folk costumes, and an ethnographic film, curated by Filip Petkovski Ph.D., UNESCO-certified heritage expert. It aims to represent the cultural heritage of Macedonians, Albanians, Turks, Roma, and Vlachs living in North Macedonia, and to feature recorded personal narratives of the models on the photos who are leaders in their professions (actors, musicians, athletes, public figures), about their views and experiences with diversity and inclusion.

The project incorporates new media, ethnography, and visual anthropology to contextualise the topic, while each photograph serves as a visual narrative aimed to illustrate the dynamic evolution of cultural identity in the region. We are led by the idea that cultural heritage must be reinterpreted and modernised to be largely disseminated, especially amongst the younger population, who might mystify and reject the topic of cultural heritage. The exhibition will take place at the Youth Cultural Centre in Skopje, while the results of the project will be published as a research paper in the journal "Macedonian Folklore" in which we will explore diversity, inclusion, and peaceful coexistence.

The project aims to emphasise the similarities in the cultures of all of the communities that live in North Macedonia and encourages the audience to engage in a process of mutual learning and enrichment of knowledge related to cultural heritage."
